NEIPA - New England IPA 6.6 º 30 IBU

Hopalaa

This Hazy IPA presents a lush, tropical showcase driven by a trio of expressive hops. Cashmere Lupomax leads the charge, imparting a delicate mélange of lemon zest and ripe melon, while Mosaic Lupomax adds deep layers of juicy mango and blueberry. The addition of Motueka brightens the profile with a distinctively fresh lime snap. On the palate, the soft, bready malt base supports a vibrant fruit salad character without clashing. Its signature opacity and low perceived bitterness focus entirely on a juicy sensation, finishing with a clean, pillowy softness that highlights modern New World hop intensity and biotransformation.

Appearance. Pale gold (5 SRM) with a deep, opaque haze that creates a luminous shine. Topped with a dense, rocky, meringue-like white head that shows excellent retention and leaves thick lacing.

Aroma. High intensity aromatics bursting with tropical and citrus notes. Dominant scents of mango, lime zest, and ripe peach are complemented by subtle notes of coconut and melon. Malt presence is low and neutral, providing a clean, lightly bready backdrop. Fermentation esters are supportive and fruity.

Taste. Initial impression is a wash of tropical fruit juice. High hop flavors of papaya, blueberry, and zesty lime reflect the Mosaic and Motueka influence. Malt flavors are low, suggesting bready flour and sweet grain. Bitterness is moderate-low, masked by a full body, leading to a soft, off-dry finish. Aftertaste is clean and lingering with citrus oil.

Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a characteristically soft, pillowy texture. Carbonation is moderate, enhancing the juicy perception. Alcohol warmth is light and well-integrated. The beer is smooth and creamy without being cloying, showing no astringency or raw starchiness.
